Hi Ross,<BR>
Thanks for your reply. My simple mp3 player application is based on gstreamer (using elements like filesrc, decodebin,alsasink etc) which takes mp3 file name as input. so I think it can not read from stdin & play the mp3 stream.<BR>
Though VLC media player is good option but we are not allowed to use these player as mentioned in the assignment.<BR>
So we want to read the RTP media data using library, decode it and play the mp3 decoded data. I read that SDL_sound library can be used to decode the buffer and can be played the decode raw data.<BR>
Currently openRTSP is using sink classes to write the data into given file name (file or stdout). <BR>
can we get the rtp data buffer directly (may be in some callback)using live media library rather than writing it to file or stdout so that I can manage this buffer in some data structure (e.g. list) and will try to play using SDL sound library parallely. dont know if this idea will work.<BR>
Please give some idea if you have any. Thanks in advance.<BR>
Regards,<BR>
